It plays a huge role within this advertisement because it develops an emotional response within the consumer, which then is linked to Coca-Cola brand and its products that are being advertised, making it attract through commercial.
Coca-Cola anticipated audience of the advertisement is to target all age’s groups within a lower to middle socioeconomic classes. The representation of family is predominate within the commercial not leaning towards different genders but more to sibling relationships and interactions.
The typical American, Caucasian middle class families is the bias that is shown through the color scheme of red, white, and blue which shown throughout the commercial. Not necessarily indicating the all typical American families are Caucasian, but if through perspective of individual not from the United States would probably personify the typical American family being Caucasian. Rather the multicultural melting pot that the United States is known for. Coca-Cola is perfect in representing the traditional family essence of the typical American family and how timeless it is, however not implementing cultural diversity within this
Coca- Cola has always been popular with America and in the 1950s; it became the main soda to drink during the 1950s and also the golden age for the product. One glass of Coca- Cola was only five cents. The soda was a symbol of social status. If you wanted to be refreshed and satisfied, then you have to drink Coca- Cola. Celebrities, actors, athletes, workers, kids and even Santa Claus had to have Coca- Cola in their hand. With the boom of television in households, Coca-Cola became more popular because of the advertisements contain relaxing and being comfortable with the soda in their hand. It became so appealing that Time’s Magazine stated that, “It is simpler, sharper evidence than the Marshall Plan, or a voice ...
Promptly after this commercial aired, many Americans took to social media to voice their opinions about the message Coke had sent to the more than 110 million people tuning in to watch the big game (Stampler). Many of these people took a very conservative approach to the commercial, claiming that Americans need to speak English and even singing “America the Beautiful” in other languages was un-American (Younge). According to the United States Census Bureau, 20.5% of Americans speak a language other than English in the home (Measuring America). To reiterate, approximately one out of every five people in the US speak another language, which is a huge market for Coca-Cola. This commercial was used to appeal to the true American audience. This audience knows what it means to be an immigrant, a minority, and a non-native.
Cola Cola persuades the consumers through emotional appeal, pathos. The happiness and pleasure featured in the commercial appeals to the audiences’ emotions. The commercial persuades the audience through showing them how each one in the commercial is entertained in his or her own way and how Coca Cola is the reason behind it. The sound and the music in the commercial makes the viewer feel excited and wanting to enjoy every moment. The camera techniques appeals to the pathos part, since there are some long shots that expresses a variety of emotions felt when drinking Coca Cola. The colors used in the commercial shows the hidden emotions, red is a very strong color. For example, in the scenario of the indian wedding, the red color appears in
As the first close up of the actual beverage Coca-Cola is viewed, it’s plain and simple with the font and color both being simplified. This is done to create a certain appealing look to the audience’s sense, though not only does the soda look tasty and refreshing, the plain font and white color appeals to the audience to create a sort of relaxed feeling. The soda itself could bring back certain nostalgia to the audience at hand, and even go further for the audience to begin craving a coke because of how delicious the coke
Pathos, being the strategy most strongly used in this commercial, connects with the feelings of the audience. By featuring the commercial atop a green hill with a diverse group of people, Coca-Cola is showing that people of different cultures can come together in harmony, which aforementioned, was what people were looking for at this period in history. Not only the thought of harmony among groups of people, but the song that they sing together melodiously. When the commercial begins we see a young blonde woman begin the song, then she is joined by the rest of the crowd in singing, “I’d like to buy the world a home and furnish it with love…” along with other verses describing animals and pleasantries that would accompany them in furnishing this home. When we think of home, we think of a place where we can be loved and cared for, a place that is peaceful and pleasant (or this is what most people hope for), which is exactly what Coke describes to us as we watch enchanted by the beautiful voices of the people. Coca-Cola connects with us by evoking emotions of belongingness, love, peace and harmony amongst our fellow friends and people. This form of pathos is what really hooks the
POP! The bottle of Coke is opened and for many, all they need is one sip to become hooked on the preeminence in the case of it. For the hundred and 125-year Corporation that is all they want you to do, is take a sip of an ice cold Coke. For over a century Coca-Cola has been a powerhouse for producing one of the world favorite beverages. Wanting you to just take a sip “taste feeling” of happiness. Not only does coke do a great job of selling their products, but they have great strategy advertising it. Particularly, in the Super Bowl commercial titled Brotherly Love. In this commercial the director created a great deal of emotion, showing great sense of ethics and manifests logic. With all these tools used in the commercial

The commercial emphasizes the logical truth of America by showing that this is a country contains many different people, with different races, religions, and ethnicities. People from different countries immigrate to America for many different reasons, and when they do, they become parts of the American citizens. As a global corporation, Coca-Cola is very smart to recognize that there are people from different countries in America, and appeal to everyone in America instead of just the U.S.-born Americans. By broadcasting this commercial, Coca-Cola wants to relay the massage that anyone is as important as others and want to bring everyone together through their products. Also,
This is the final way that ads use to influence audiences to buy their product over another. The Pepsi ad provides a website that onlookers may visit if they wish to learn more about the “Pepsi Refresh Project.” By citing this website the ad has appealed to audience’s logical reasoning. However, unlike the Pepsi ad, the coke ad provides its fact on the advertisement. The ad informs readers that coca cola has been around for over 84 years. This is a better way to appeal to a person logical understanding, because the information is right there, and they do not have to go to a website to find information about the product. Overall, both advertisements provide information about their product in an attempt to persuade audiences to buy either Pepsi or Coca
We appeal to relationships for adults with families. Commercials will depict families farming together engagingly (Fig 82). Appealing to family togetherness (Fig 83), advertisement will sequence from learning to farm to produce and finally to Share. Generating sense of togetherness helped Coca Cola built a Facebook fan base of 6 million .
Ads of these days in comparison to those in previous times have come a lengthy way from how it is used to how it is provided to the community. Promoters use many methods to reel in most of their clients into purchasing or trying an item whether it is new or an old item. One of the many kinds of propaganda they use is the simply people system which may use a popular individual as an make an effort to persuade the community that his or her opinions indicate those of the typical individual and that they are also operating for the advantage of the individuals. However, the kinds of propaganda used in the Pepsi marketing is the group and shining generalities system. The Coca-Cola ad is also provided as a Pepsi container with a rush of colors capturing out with a cheerful experience in middle of all the different colors. Promoters have many different kinds of propaganda they could use to take clients into the checkout range with their product(s) in side. With the Coca-Cola ad select to use a vibrant plan to entice the clients fun and free-spirited aspect, and a range which indicates the use of the group system.
Pepsi was introduced in 1893 by Caleb Bradham as “Brads Drink” which then was renamed to “Pepsi Cola” in 1898. There wasn’t many options for advertising in this era due television not being introduced into households till the late 1900’s. One of the first Pepsi Cola advertisements was a black and while flyer that had a few characters laughing and read “Whoope!!! Zoom!! Drink Pepsi-Cola” at an advertisement from Pepsi, the have bright blue, red, and white colors that pop and are eye catching. Comparing this ad with a current ad and modern technology, you can see that Pepsi’s marketing and advertising techniques have come a long way. Reviewing a recent Pepsi advertisement, you can see that they have made groundbreaking changes to their branding techniques. First I will I will note that their choices in colors (red, blue, and white) for their brand are not only eye popping, but in a way symbolize the colors of America. I am not sure if this was their intent but it sure does standout. Next, there slogan in the ad states “Help Kick Off The Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show”, this ad targets a very large group people because its directly relating to one of the biggest sports event which is Super
With that it is clear that the need for dominance surely is not the only thing Pepsi uses in its ads, so what else is there? A need that goes right along with dominance would be the need for affiliation. As a Pepsi drinker this ad appeals to the need for affiliation according to Jib fowles as “the need to adhere and remain loyal to a friend” (page 79). If Pepsi has been inside your house for as long as you can remember this ad reminds you that a switch now would be a betrayal. Pepsi knows its fans are incredibly loyal as is Coke’s. However there is a market that waivers from side to side not fully committed to either. This ad attacks that group with the need for affiliation. Humans often want to be on the winning side or be with the majority and this ad clearly shows Pepsi as the better product. Jon Russel of The next web states that “Advertising that directly mentions a competitor is always a bit risky but this daring creation… is pure genius”. Using another company’s brand invites a rebuttal but at the same time it shows Pepsi has no fear from Coke as it ran the ad knowing
Coca-Cola is a well-known and cherished brand name. When people think of this name, memories tend to overflow in their heads. Why? Because, not only does Coke taste great and refresh your own personal memories, it also fills you with memories of the Coca-Cola like "Always Coca-Cola", the antics of the Coke polar bears, and all of the different ads that have represented Coke over the years. Just about every ad you see, as a consumer, will have tons of hidden meanings. Coca-Cola may not always intend to present the same hidden meanings, but will always intend for their audience to see a commercial and hopefully crave a Coke product. I found a Diet Coke ad that really caught my eye in the August issue of Southern Living, a magazine for women. The ad, titled High School Reunion, pictured four Coke bottles in a diagonal line. The first bottle, a new unopened Diet Coke bottle, is pictured at the top left-hand corner of the page. The next two Diet Coke bottles are supposedly being consumed. At the bottom right hand corner of the ad page you see the bottle is empty. This reveals the conversation of a young woman contemplating the plans for her high school reunion. Over all Coca-Cola is believed to put these claims, supports, and warrants in their ads to make their product more appealing to the consumer.
"Over a century of sweet tasting beverages with family and friends." The positioning statement of Coca-Cola needs to project the image in the minds of their existing consumers, as well as potential new consumers, the history of Coca-Cola being a competing global brand in the beverage industry and the association of the brand with fun themes such as social events, parties, family activities, etc. According to Kotler and Keller (2016), positioning "is the act of designing a company 's offering and image to occupy a distinctive place in the minds of the target market." There are factors that must be taken into account to produce an effective positioning statement that will attract the attention of the targeted market segment:
